Small lane between Sandgate and City Road. Removed by the re-routing of Milk Market and Sandgate. Behind the beer-houses, lodging houses and shops on Sandgate there were numerous alleys, chares or entries, described by Knowles and Boyle in 1890 as 'dark' and 'dingy'.. 'crowded with the miserable dwellings of the very poor'. The keelmen colonised the Sandgate area in the eighteenth century. Bourne recorded that several thousand people, mostly those who worked on the river, lived in Sandgate and the lanes off it.

Shown on Ordnance Survey second edition. There were two Barley Mow pubs only 26m apart with a yard in-between them. This was the High Barley Mow. The Low Barley Mow was in a different ownership. In the early 1840s the Barley Mow had a brewhouse which could produce eighteen half-barrels. In 1863 the Low Barley Mow (HER 10515) and the High Barley Mow were put up for sale with the brewery, malt lofts and stables which connected the two pubs. From 1897 the pub was run by Edward Timlin and then Sarah Timlin. It was known as 'Timlin's'. When the Low Barley Mow closed in 1905, the High Barley Mow was renamed the New Barley Mow. Dockers could get a drink at any time of day and hot rum was served early in the morning. Isaac Tucker, Gateshead brewer, bought the New Barley Mow for £5250 in 1943. In 1967 Whitbread took over the Barley Mow. In 1995 it was called the Fog & Firkin and an extension was added to the west. In 2001 it was renamed 'Studio' and was extended to the south. Horribly altered. Now closed. The public house was recorded in 2011 by Archaeological Services Durham University. The original building is brick, three storeys, with a slate roof, wide chimney stacks and windows in shallow segmental arches. The interior has been comprehensively gutted. During the recording the archaeologist noticed some early 1960s wallpaper under the modern plasterboard on the stairs between the first and second floors. The paper was decorated with musical instruments, dancers and a guitarist. It is of some significance in terms of social history. It was recommended that a larger sample of the wallpaper was exposed and recorded and a sample donated to English Heritage's wallpaper archive in London.
